About the alarmingness of a key-package failing. Well, pdiff support was in experimental for a long time. Apparently there is no other way to expose a new feature to real world testing other than to upload it to unstable (I didn't had reports about this particular problem from the version in experimental). The name "unstable" implies that breakage may happen. Don't get me wrong, I would love to have a better way to expose risky new features to the world :) Cheers, Michael -- Linux is not The Answer.
